Hasbro's Star Wars R2-D2 Interactive Astromech Droid is a unique toy designed for children or collectors, aged 8 and up. It is modelled after R2-D2 from the Star Wars series, and has several interactive functions. These include playing back quotations from the movies, answering questions about other characters, playing games, and acting as a motion-detector. The droid is capable of moving on its own and also indicates a range of "emotions" depending on the conversation topic or the activity being done. The body houses a secret storage compartment, and one of the arms folds down to function as a drink holder. Certain voice commands, e.g. "go on patrol" or "play message" will elicit that particular response. Other features include the ability to project a light beam, as well as playing and dancing to cantina music. This toy requires both AA and D-cell batteries.
